Jun. 17th, 2008 @ 08:24 am Halo fandom help
Can anyone help edit the Halo article on Fan History? The article is an introduction to and history of the history of the Halo fandom. It could really use some improvement. At the moment, it mostly has a timeline of bebo group creation dates, LiveJournal community creation dates, FanFiction.Net related dates and some other random bits of information. It lacks information on the really big fansites, the important message boards, the big name fans, information on clans, demographic information about the fandom. It would also be really helpful to draw a picture of how female gamers fit into the Halo fan base. Any and all of those details being added would be appreciated. :)

Fan History is also trying to create a directory of Halo fans. The directory is intended to help making finding information about your fellow fans easier as they move from site to site, fandom to fandom, clan to clan, interest to interest. It would be fantastic to see those articles added to, improved and new ones created. At the moment, there are over 1,300 articles about members of the fandom. The most popular article about a fan is the article about Peter Chimaera. Thanks for any help in improving the directory! :)

I'm looking for some other girls to play Halo 3 with!  My gamertag is snapplemodel.

My big accomplishment of the day was FINALLY getting to Lieutenant, Grade 3. I couldn't get the skill of 10, so I was planning on just getting experience points like crazy, then finally today in a ranked match, something clicked and I went from 8 to 9 to 10! :) Sounds kind of lame but it was a big deal for me! I only started playing like a month ago, but I'm addicted. The only thing I don't like is the creepy guys who want to add me and "get to know me" , which never is as innocent as they say it is. Oh well. Happy Gaming Girls!

Feb. 19th, 2008 @ 05:29 pm finally!

I have been trying to hook up with other girls on halo 3 forever. Well not really since I only got a 360 in December but usually it's just my cousin and I but we want to have an experience with a group of girls. I'm tired of guys blasting on us for no reason and even when we do just as good as them they say its luck or what ever. Anyway now that I've found this community, does anyone want to trade gamer tags and like play sometime just for fun with out a bunch of overly competetive guys on our backs?

Jan. 11th, 2008 @ 12:38 pm Hello!
Hey ladies!
Glad to see there's a place for the women to chat :)
I've been gaming for a long time. Back to the Atari days really. But I've never been very hardcore about it. My husband and I recently got gold xbl accounts so it's been a blast to play together. Unfortunately, I'm my getting my read handed to me on a regular basis. Frustrating! But overall it's a lot of fun.

My gt is UnloadingLissa for the moment, DH is GMLange. When my month trial runs out, I'll likely just play on his account. So if you're ever interested in playing some more... uh... recreational games, feel free to add me and/or DH. But be careful - he's good :)

And on a side note... I can't tell you how often I hear "Yeah, I unloaded on Lisa." Argh! Yeah, I suck, but the name is LisSa. Two s's. Ha ha!

Take care all! Hope to see you out there.

 Hey guys, does anyone here live in New Jersey? If you do, there is an awesome new game store called Play N Trade there, it's on the corner of Rt 9 & Union Hill Rd, in the Exclusive Plaza.

I've been there a few times and they are so much better than EBGames or GAMEstop. First of all, the guy who owns it actualy knows a lot about games, and he'll talk to you about them, and he can reccomend great games. They have games from every system from Wii, to old school systems like NES and even Atari. They also take trade ins for old games and they give a much better price than EB or GAMEStop. It's an indivudialy owned store, not a corporate store, so they aren't pushy, they don't have any quota's to meet or anything like that.

They also have a service that no other store has......DISC REPAIR. They have a huge industrial disc resurfacer that they can use to fix any disc, whether its a game, a cd, or a dvd...and it only costs $3. I had a game that wasn't working that I was going to toss, but I took it there and now it works!!!

Another cool thing that they do is that they let you play the game in the store if you want. They have consoles set up where if you ask, they can put in just about any game that they have in stock and you can play it for a few minutes to see if you like it. (FOR FREEEEEEEE) Where else can you do that?



The owner also told me that they are planning a HALO 3 TOURNAMENT!!!!!!!! for Feb 9. First place will be like a $75 gift certificate and they will have free pizza and food and 10% off anything used in the store

Howdy, ya'll! :) I'm fairly new to the Halo-verse, only been playing for about a week. This morning I stumbled on the "Infection" section of the custom gaming/matchmaking. I'm pretty intriqued and would like to play, but the people on my friends list (mostly my brother and his friends) wouldn't really be down for playing something like that. So I'm just looking for a few people to start a party and maybe give it a try.

My Gamertag is Panda Check, add or message me if your interested?

Jan. 6th, 2008 @ 11:33 pm just got 360 with my girlfriend...
So we're trying to build a bit of a friends list...and could definitely use some girls since we only seem to encounter jerky guys ("I took your halo virginity, yeah, did you feel your hymen ripping?"), jerky little boys, or cute but too young to listen to us cussing kids...and maybe an occasional dude who's alright.

We both played a lot of Halo 2 with friends and are...decent...my gf more than me...but we don't care how advanced or not friends are, as long as they are, well, friendly. :)

Hello, first time poster, long time Halo fan. Since I would dearly love to expound upon a few topics, I lj-cut becuz I love.

Clans - not advertising )

Finally

It was great finding this community. I've been so obsessed with Halo and not a single person on my f-list shares the joy. Of course, my background on LJ is... centered on writing and mostly yaoi at that. Feel free to overlook that aspect, however ^^; I hope to get to know more Halo fans and play with more ppl! I usually sneak in some time on Thursday and Saturday nights If you read the whole thing, I love you already and I wanna hear your story too =D Also, I'd love to swap some strategies we've found to work really well. I doubt most are 'clan secrets' since I've seen other groups incorporate the same techniques we do from time to time.

Hey girls, I'm new here. I just wanted to see if there was anyone left who still plays Halo 2. I unfortunately don't have the money to buy a 360 and only get to play Halo 3 when I'm at my brothers house. I'd really love some girls to play with because the guys are always jerks to me. They either think I'm a 12 year old boy, refuse to speak to me, or kill me even when I'm on their team. It's really frustrating. Granted I'm not the best player in the world, I just started playing again after 7 months but I'm getting better again and trying really hard. So if there is anyone who wouldn't mind playing Halo 2 with me, I'd greatly appreciate it. THANKS! Just lemme know if you're interested and I'll give you my gamertag.

Hey there, just joined the community. I'm a level 31 Lieutenant Class 2, and I'm looking for some people that play Halo 3 regularly to party up with in matchmaking or even just to play a couple games of social or whatever. The people matchmaking pairs me up with are either horrible or bring in people from their party that are horrible.

This is the kinda guy I wanna meet at a club! =)



And a happy story:
I ended up teaming up with these 3 hilarious ghetto guys online. We played quite a few game together and did quite well as a team (I was MVP 3 times! holy crap!). About 3 games in they realize I'm a girl. They laugh for like a minute straight about it (mostly in shock), but we keep on playing no different. It was just really awesome that these crazy guys just did not care at all and made 0 comments about it (We were winning a lot, they couldn't afford to lose me! haha). Well, they did start calling me "Sunshine" for some reason, but that's a heck of a lot better than what they could have been saying!

One more step for "Mistress" Chiefs everywhere! =)

Current Mood: *pleasantly awake*
Im not sure how many of you are actually into the story of the game, so I will somewhat brief here....if I am wrong and you also love the story, then kick ass. :D
I was just curious about some thoughts any of you have.
I was at a local midnight release, got the leg. that I had preordered and rushed home. Finished the game at about 9Am, stayed up all night. Well of course watching past the credits is the only way to keep your sanity...I was worried for a bit to be honest.
Anyways, I was thinking that this is probably where the movie will come into play, just my opinion on that....but if you beat the game on leg. you know that planet that the chief and cortana are heading towards...I thought mayb that was onyx....also that "theme" is SOO much like the marathon stories...any ideas from anyone else??
Hope I didn't bore you guys to death.

I just bought an Xbox 360 and halo 3 yesterday for my brother. I didn't get to try the game last night cuz he was playing it ALL night. But I did try it this morning. I'm not used to the controller yet. So many buttons confuses me. LoL.

I was a big frustrated in my first game cuz I couldn't figure out how to pick up weapons or dual wield. And asking my teammates was out of the question since none of them bothered to answer. We won with me being on top with 18 kills, using the assault rifle and beat downs. :D Just goes to show that just cuz I'm a girl asking for help doesn't mean I'm that big of a noob and should be ignored. I'm not asking to be treated as "one of the guys" but I wish they would respect me as a gamer.

Well, happy halo to you all. And if any of you want to play, plz leave me your gamertag.

Sep. 26th, 2007 @ 12:35 pm Sometimes Live sucks.
Current Mood: lethargic

Yesterday I took the day off work to play Halo 3 all day. Much success! However there are a lot of new features and I'm generally out of practice with any FPS games, since Halo is pretty much the only one I play. I've been playing stuff like Oblivion and FFXI, and we haven't done weekly Halo LANs for quite a long time. Long story short, it's a new game and I have been a bad girl and not practiced.

So last night we're playing on Social, mostly Big Team Battle. I'm still getting killed way more than I am killing. We actually won and I got a double-kill with a grenade. When the match is over (we were playing on High Ground, I believe shotty-snipers) I am going over the stats. I say "All right I got 5 that time!" and one of the guys on my team says "Wow. You SUCK." He had been making little comments over teamspeak that generally started pissing me off. Dude, the game's been out for less than 20 hours. Two people on our team had even lower numbers than I did. So I told him off. ^^

Me: Yeah, I KNOW I suck, that's why I'm plaing social. If you're such a badass, why don't you go play fuckin' ranked.

Grr.

Sep. 25th, 2007 @ 09:19 am OK girls, it's time to get active again!!
I miss this community. I know it kind of dwindled down after Halo2 had been out awhile, but we have no excuses now!!!

So who's played what? First impressions?

I opted to jump straight into matchmaking last night because I was so stoked. My boyfriend and I played for about two hours doing slayer and skirmish. The new Zanzibar is amazing, and it's nice to have a new game with a map I'm kind of familiar with. We played one ranked double team, and although we didn't know the map at all, we owned.

Anyone played the new territories? It's weird having offense/defense, and the timer takes FOREVER to change over.

So are you guys doing mostly campaign right now?

got halo 3 at midnight last night (yes last night, I'm in NZ so we're a day ahead) and oh-em-gee its awesome. <3

anyway the real reason I'm posting is to say hi and... to apologise for being one of the girls that gives "girl gamers" a bad rep (maybe just girls in general a bad rep...). here's why:

had to ring tech support today because when I scratched the panel off my xbl subscription (I used a coin to scratch) and off came one of the sections of my code... anyway finally get thru to tech support to try and explain what an idiot I've been and to ask whether they can give me the missing section of my code. I'm pretty sure the guy was thinking, "ugh stupid frickin girls..."

so I'm very sorry everyone!!

and also my gamertag is iheartmilo if anyone wants to add me...? =)

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to share this video from GamesRadar.com on The Art of Teabagging. Quite a bit of Halo 2 footage, as well as from other FPS games.

Few cautionary notes:
*This video is NSFW.
*Only for people with a sense of humor. Even better if you love FPS games.

Please also don't forget to Digg it if you dig it. :)



And since this is my first post here, I may as well introduce myself. My name is Lizzie, and I've been playing Halo 2 since 2005, and it's the only reason I bought an Xbox. Then I played Halo: Covenant Evolved after that on PC, and then ended up getting it for my Xbox as well. Now I have a 360 and am anxiously waiting for Halo 3. My Xbox Live gamertag is eizzil doll, which you can also find in the Halo 2 footage in the video mentioned above. ;)
